Chapter 874
Thalassa glanced at Sophia intrigued glance upon hearing her statement.
She had witnessed Sophia’s talent for identifying valuable artifacts first hand, so she knew Sophia wouldn’t be wrong.
Meaning, the bracelet Amelia held was indeed real, even though Amelia claimed it was a fake.
Amelia had owned that bracelet for so many years, so of course she should know if it was a genuine artifact or not.
There was only one possibility left – she was deliberately calling it a fake.
What good would that do her?
“You’re just a four-year-old, what would you know? If I say this bracelet is fake, then it’s fake! I’ve been wearing it for over twenty years. Would I mistake it?” Amelia’s eyes flickered with panic at Sophia’s words, but she quickly regained her composure and replied in a defiant tone.
She had to insist the bracelet was a fake – that was the only way she could cancel the surveillance order from Lysander and Zephyr.
It wouldn’t be worth making such a fuss over a fake bracelet.
After finishing her words, Amelia quickly glanced at Charlotte, her eyes flashing a desperate signal.
Charlotte, who had been stunned, suddenly understood Amelia’s intentions, and gasped in surprise, “Oh my, now I remember. I was indeed wearing a common bracelet.”
Her unexpected exclamation successfully drew everyone’s attention.
Seeing everyone’s eyes on her, Charlotte continued, “When Amelia gave me the Sinclair family heirloom bracelet, I loved it so much. It was so precious to me that I didn’t dare to wear it and risk damaging it. So, I left it at home and wore a similar-looking common bracelet instead, to show off that I had received a gift that represented the Sinclair family’s legacy. I wanted to show off without risking losing the bracelet. I didn’t expect this big misunderstanding. Amelia, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I was just too excited about receiving the Sinclair family heirloom bracelet. I showed it off to all my friends and completely forgot that I was actually wearing a fake. I apologize to you all for this misunderstanding.”
Saying this, Charlotte dropped her gaze, her mouth twitching in a gesture of regret and embarrassment.
“You silly girl, when I received the bracelet, I never showed off to anyone!” Amelia chastised Charlotte sternly.
After her harsh words, she turned to Lysander and Zephyr with a smile. “You see, it was just a misunderstanding. The bracelet is a fake, not the Sinclair family heirloom. I think we should just let this matter go. It’s not worth wasting everyone’s time over at common bracelet. After the banquet, I’ll have a serious talk with Charlotte.”
This was Amelia’s real plan.
By claiming the bracelet was fake, she hoped to downplay the issue and sweep it under the rug.
